About Inlet:

Inlet encompasses approximately 66.4 square miles at its longest north to south distance. Inlet's abundance of natural features contributes to the strong rustic and natural character of this Adirondack hamlet. It is considered a gateway to a more primitive and pristine portion of the Adirondack Park and has been characterized as one of the "Adirondack Wilderness Outposts" by an Adirondack Park Association report. Inlet, as a township and a hamlet, is predominantly a tourist destination summer through winter months. As such, the hamlet offers visitors lodging, dining, shopping, recreational equipment sales, rentals and services. Other businesses such as the hardware store(s), convenience store/gas station, laundromat, movie theater, grocery store, liquor store, insurance/real estate business, Adirondack furnishings store, and a marina offer tourists, seasonal residents, and year round residents a variety of products and services.

Outside of the hamlet boundaries are several other restaurants, lodging, and marinas, most of which are on or near one of the lakes within the Fulton Chain of Lakes. A number of these businesses, however, operate only summer and fall months during the peak tourist seasons.
